I'm back...

Where to start? It's been awhile friends. The holidays have kept me away from this space. While there has been much to document, there has also been much to savor. The savoring is what has kept me away.

Many times I've thought, I need to blog about this...I want to remember this...but when the kids finally did go to sleep the famous Christmas quilt and a cup of hot chocolate glass of wine were far more appealing than a computer screen.

So here goes, I'm going to make a list of all things I wanted to blog about.

*My new slate cheese board from World Market
*Watching Friends Thanksgiving episodes with Drake and thinking about how much I love his laugh
*Hosting Thanksgiving dinner
*Eating too much cheese
*The "joy" of taking family Christmas photos
*Decorating the Christmas tree and the way Sammy says ornament, "oment"
*Our family's obsession with drinking hot chocolate and eating popcorn
*A new cheese I discovered at Trader Joe's
*All the many holiday parties we attended this year
*How much our family loves pajamas (seriously Trent's goal sometimes is to wear his all day)
*The smell of Christmas trees (we finally got a real one this year)
*Christmas festivities
*Daddy being off for a week (i.e. our most favorite week ever)
*Needing to cut back on cheese (my pants are getting tight)

I'm really hoping to get back in the groove (I know you've missed me :P ), but it's still December and the Christmas quilt is calling. Happy New Year!!
